FAQs

Why we created this starter membership shop package?
Over the last 20 years, we have had so many startup clients asking us for something to get started with and then upgrade / grow as more funds become available in their businesses.
We noted that even with providers such as Shopify, the recurring monthly costs remained too high even for a very basic online store (monthly platform usage fees + transaction fees).
Therefore, we finally created our Small Business Division for this exact reason. This division now makes packages such as this one available. This allows you to get started at a very affordable once-off fee, eliminating monthly platform costs and transaction fees, while leaving room to grow your online store as more funds become available.

Will I be able to make design changes to this site?
No full design changes available – this is a pre-built platform – the only changes that can be made are:
– loading and editing of your classes.
– adding, changing membership packages.
– adding your videos (or tutorials) content.
– change existing content on the site pages.

What platform is used?
This pre-built site uses WordPress as its backbone.

How many membership options and classes can I add?
Though we only load the first 3-5 membership options + first 3 class categories + first 4 classes,  you can load unlimited options and classes yourself.

Can I use this to sell memberships Internationally?
Yes, though the currency will stay in RSA rands – Payfast accepts international payments via credit and debit cards.

What is hosting and what is included?
Hosting is the storage space for your website to be online and emails to function.
Included in the hosting is your up to 10 personalised email addresses (example: anna@fitnessgo.co.za), 10GB storage for your emails and website, website security and hosting support.

What if I already have a domain and hosting?
This is not a problem, we then simply load the site onto your existing hosting. Or we can transfer your domain and hosting to our side if you prefer.
